"Overall a great rum with a fantastic nose as well as a fantastic finish that I got a sample of from my youngest son a month ago. It’s a blend of rum from the Clarendon Distillery selected by Velier and E&A Sheer from casks with rum distilled 2002, 2004 and 2006. It’s bottled 2020 which gives it’s 14 years old. It’s a pot still destilled rum, tropical aged on site in Jamaica with an ester level of 324.5 gr/hlap which gives that it’s a “Plummer" (EMB) category of the distillery. The nose is complex, smooth, round, fruity, oaky and nutty. At the palate it’s still complex and you can feel the ABV. After a while and during the long finish you recognize the esters, the fruitiness and all the other aromas as tastes."

"You have to drink it with caution. The almost 70% alc. have quite a bit of bang. In the finish nice woody and dirty. I'm missing a little support from fruit sweetness in the finish. Otherwise, this is a really good Monymusk for the PRICE."

"Clearly better on all fronts compared to the continentally aged version. The fruity notes are more present. Also quite alcohol-forward but after a while it integrates a bit better."
